Fasting is one of the biggest reasons towards piety. Because the fasting person has carried out the commands of God and avoid His prohibitions.

In Surah Al Baqarah verse 183, which talks about fasting. As in the Qur'an which means: “O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become righteous. (QS. Al Baqarah: 183)

Likewise, the righteous is always afraid to do things that are forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, as he recalled the arguments that threaten with horrible torment. From this we know that faith is not possible without the light of God, the science against the proposition of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Shallallahu'alaihi.

The nature of the righteous is that they devotion, muamalat, mingle, doing good as he remembered the proposition that promises a reward from Allah Almighty, not on the trend, tradition, blind imitation, or temporal orientation.

If a person meets these criteria, it is worth it to be a noble servant at his side: "Verily, the most honorable in the sight of Allah is the most pious among you" (QS. Al Hujurat: 13)

People who abstain from fasting are forbidden by God in the form of eating, drinking, sexual intercourse etc. Whereas the human soul has the tendency to all of it and it left it all to draw closer to God and expect a reward from Him. It is all a form of piety.

People who fast trained himself to draw closer to God, to stay away from things that are favored by his lust, when in fact he was able to eat, drink or the lovemaking without being seen, but he left it because he realized that God was watching him.

The fast narrows the devil's movements in the human bloodstream, so the influence of the devil weakens. The consequences of immorality can be reduced.

Fasting in general can increase obedience to God, and this is the habits of the righteous.

By fasting, the rich feel the pain of hunger. So it will be more attentive to the poor people who are less fortunate. And this is also the behavior of the righteous.

In conjunction with the month of Ramadhan which is full of blessings and glory Sarawak PAS would like to wish a Happy fasting with full devotionals enjoined by the Quran and Sunnah of the Prophet.

We wish our practice acceptable to God and our prayers answered by God to continue to persevere to achieve success neither in this world nor in the hereafter. Allahua'lam
